Art Deco Wedding Invitation

Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, COLOR PALETTE, Green, Orange, Theme: Vintage, Yellow, inspiration, invitations

Art deco, a period of streamlined simplicity and bold shapes and patterns, has always been by far one of my favorite time periods in art history. One of our newest ready made collection invitations, Deco, is inspired by all things from the art deco era. Below is our inspiration for the piece and the invitation.

Pushing The Envelope

Posted in: BLOG CATEGORIES, featured in..., invitations

A while back I contributed to the online magazine Nonpareil. It was a fun experience for me, and really got me thinking outside the box for invitation and save the date possibilities. Below is a sampling of what Zenadia Design created for the magazine, all shot by the fabulous Gena Susan.

The first invitation we created was a save the date, using a vintage perfume bottle. We made a vintage perfume bottle box for the save the date to be delivered in. This was my favorite piece to create, and I just love the bottle!

The second invitation we created was a plate invitation with a napkin reply card. Vintage tea party of picnic was my inspiration for this piece.

Last but not least, we created a love letter invitation, with a letter reply card. Sweet and personal.
